It took me going through therapy and then alcohol recovery till, "Oh, yeah - There it is." A core self. It took finding that. Not that I can always let go to accessing it.
It's amazing how many people don't have a core self. That is, when you have intuitions that can be reality-tested, fact checked. I can't even say that that's wisdom, but it sure comes closer than before.
